Watch out lads when in Scotland.
Re: Watch out lads when in Scotland.
Very good point and a good reminder for me when I'm up there later this year.
I'd normally have a single pint before riding / driving as my absolute max, looks like I won't be this summer!

Stupid law
You could have a meal in Longtown (England), have 2 normal beers and be under the English alcohol limit,having been stopped by a Cumbria Police car & take a breath test, pass it and then continue to drive 3 miles over the border, towards Langholm on the A7 and be stopped by a Police Scotland car, then fail the breath test in Scotland
Madness, utter folly and madness
